Author Event: Anna Maynard at Devonport Library

Anna Maynard will join us to discuss her new heartfelt contemporary novel about Mary Roberts, a driven emergency doctor whose carefully planned life is upended after a shocking betrayal. In need of a temporary escape, Mary signs up to help run a wilderness expedition medicine course. She soon discovers that rock climbing, plunging into freezing cold water, and working in the close company of a grumpy yet disconcertingly magnetic retrieval doctor are pushing her way out of her comfort zone.

Suddenly, everything she thought she knew about herself is starting to unravel. The question is, what will the fallout be? A breakdown in her relationship with her sister? Her mother’s brittle mental health reaching the point of catastrophe? Or – most dangerous of all – could Mary Roberts finally be ready to fall in love?

Copies of the book will be available for purchase from Devonport Bookshop at the event - chat to Anna as she signs them for you.
